Dread Delusion is an FPP game with RPG elements and stylized retro 3D graphics, which was developed largely by artist and animator James Wragg working for the Lovely Hellplace studio.

Plot

The action of Dread Delusion takes place in the area of floating islands, also known as the Dream Islands. This is centuries after an apocalypse made their surface uninhabitable. These lands are ruled by the Apostolic Union, which has taken repressive measures to gain control.

We wake up as a prisoner and receive an offer of freedom in exchange for the task of hunting down the leader of the outlawed mercenaries of the Dark Star - Vela Callose. During the pursuit, we receive the blessing of one of the gods, who in the game are material beings. This results in a struggle, the consequences of which lead us on an adventure.

EIP Gaming: 4 / 10 by Cloude Graves

Dread Delusion is a visual feast (at least from a distance), but its philosophical dilemmas and wickedly cool world do not make up for its total lack of depth in combat, exploration, and questing that make the otherwise-beautiful game a chore.

PC Gamer: 73 / 100 by Alexander Chatziioannou

Dread Delusion brims with an exhilarating sense of discovery that starts to wobble in the final act.

COGconnected: 88 / 100 by Jaina Hill

After a while, I forgot I was sick of pixels. I look at Dread Delusion and I don’t see part of a trend. I see a game that set out to capture a particular tone and succeeded wildly. It’s not that playing Dread Delusion is like going back and playing those old games. Dread Delusion allows us to delude ourselves into remembering those games through magenta colored glasses.
